Simply Slabs 2025
"Which apricots are the sweetest?"
The answer to the question:
SLABS...ALWAYS SLABS....
Slabs have the highest sugar content of all the apricots because they're longer on the tree...picked when they're soft and overripe.
Ours are machine cut, paper-thin, and delicate...even though they're the most labor intensive to produce.
These cots are separated from the rest of the pack by their unique color and flat-ness.
Blenheim slabs are the ultimate #1 choice of apricot aficionados everywhere!
Low in sulphur, so eat them, or refrigerate.

Best ever dried apricots!!
Posted by Sandra on Jun 22nd 2025
I like to think I am a bit of an 'dried apricot' snob. AS early as I can recall dried apricots were a fav, my mother would buy a bag (back in the '40's) as it was a popular addition to many Armenian dishes. As a little child someone acquired a great taste for them and my mother would have to hide the new purchases from me or they would be gone before she could us them in a dish for rice, soup, dolmas and pastries!!! Don't really remember when I first learned about ApricotKing but being an
apricot fiend' had to try and there is no other dried apricot I would even care to buy. These are some of the tastiest and not so 'sulfured to death' morsels of wonder! The slab are favs but then any of the apricots from ApricotKing can't be beat!!!

Addicted
Posted by Sandra on May 26th 2025
Can't say enough good things about these apricot slabs. They don't last very long here, I am an age old addict. When my mom would buy those dried up wanna be apricots I would sneak them from the cupboard, she had to hide them after a while when she noticed they were disappearing and that was back in the '40s' and '50's. I have tried lots of apricots dried and fresh and never had any as good as these. I don't order too often....you can guess the reason why. And then Patty usually puts a note on the order to refrigerate them and guess what...can they get any better! They never last that long their either!!! Great quality!!!

Only Place to Buy Dried Fruit
Posted by Joan Gerberding on May 12th 2025
I've been ordering Apricot King dried fruit for years. I mean YEARS! Full of sunshine, dried to perfection, and extremely tasty to the point of addiction. I've also ordered their Apricot Jam. Simply delicious! Patti has handwritten me a note for every order. Talk about personal customer service. Organically grown to perfection!

Yum!

If you like dried apricots (or fresh apricots for that matter) you will love Apricot King's variety, flavor and quality! I can't get enough and why I can only order 1 or 2 packs at a time! It is advised to store them in fridge and it takes 'discipline' to do so as there have been times when a pack didn't make it there!!! Once they are in the fridge...even better!!! Really good to add to some veg based soups, and being of Armenian descent often part to some of the favorite dishes, cooking dolmas with dried fruit, rice pilaf topped with chopped dried fruit! Pastries filled with a mix of dried fruit and baked...well I like to think of myself as a dried apricot officianado trained from 'nearly 'birth! Those dishes made with grocery store dried apricots can't even look at them anymore. Just imaging what my grandmothers 'gatah' pastries would have tasted has she had ApricotKing as a source for dried fruits!
